"God still in the throne"

Friday, September 27, 2013

I love to share my devotional this for this morning! How God show me His still in the throne and I need to stop worrying about things. Worrying about things only help the problem it doesn't help the answer. I need to stop to trying to figure everything out and wait on God. Then go on living, and enjoy life while God is giving me the answer.When I trust God completely; there is not need to worry. God is never late!

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’ ”
(Zechariah 4:7, NKJV)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
In scripture, when Zerubabbel wanted to rebuild the temple, he laid the foundation, but people came against him and forced him to stop. For ten years, no work could be done. Zachariah, the prophet, came by and told him to do something interesting. He said, “Go get the capstone.” The capstone was the stone that was reserved as the final piece of stone for the building. It was symbolic. It represented the finished product. Why was it important that he keep the capstone in front of him? Because every time he looked at it, it would remind him that God would finish what he started. When Zerubabbel was tempted to get tired and discouraged, he would go look at that capstone. That was God saying to him, “I’m still on the throne. I’m going to do what I promised. Just stay in faith.”

Today, do you have your capstone in front of you? Do you have something that represents the final piece to your dreams? Keep that vision in front of you. Keep focused on where you are headed. Get the capstone and thank God for His faithfulness to complete the work in you.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, thank You for the work You are doing in my life. Help me to keep the vision in front of me. Show me where to place my focus. Confirm Your Word with signs following as I stay on the course You have set for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Thank you Mary for your post. It was a reminder to me as well. We have to be patient and wait on God. Sometimes it can be so hard to sit and wait but when He comes through and He finishes something that He started in our lives it is so well worth it. God is most certainly worth the wait!!!!!
